Bratislava Citizens to Collect Signatures for Gambling Ban

Slovakia is heading to the polls on February 29 and the citizens are set to cast their votes.
On that day, the residents of Bratislava will have another opportunity to shape the future of their own local community – namely they will be able to sign petitions for the ban of gambling in the Slovak capital over the course of the day of the vote.
Citizens of Bratislava have been rallying to the cause of imposing restrictions on the local gambling industry for years. On the voting day, one will be able to find hundreds of volunteers outside of polling stations collecting signatures for a ban on gambling within the premises of Bratislava.
The citizen-led initiative is also supported by local authorities – members of the Bratislava City Council, as well as several district and city councillors, have declared their support for the move.
Gambling has been a point of contention in Slovakia for years. Many cities, most notably Nitra, have been waging their own wars against their local gambling industries. With citizens of Bratislava banding together yet again under the banner of a common cause, they might be able to achieve similar success.
